G560 Upgrade (CPU, GPU)

Hello

I have a Lenovo G560 Intel Core i3 - 330 M processor with an nVidia GeForce 310 M, 4 GB of RAM.

Is there a list of CPUs, I use (favorite i5)?

Is it possible to upgrade the GPU too?

Thank you very much!

Nice day.

Please take a look at page 74 of the manual of your equipment:

http://download.Lenovo.com/userfiles/Userguide/en/user%27s%20guides%20and%20Manuals/G460-G560/Lenovo...

Article #9 lists the processors usually configured in this machine.

On the GPU, while it is considered as discreet, it is soldered to the system board. Therefore, it is not extensible.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards.

    There is no video card to upgrade, but for the models of series AMD A video is contained in the processor itself and an upgrade of the processor also carries with it an upgrade for HD 7640 G HD 7660 G video. It's light but a bit noticeable and clock speed go from 2.8 ghz to 3.2 ghz, which is not huge but noticeable. Memory is a DDR3-1600 module, and you can replace your 2 gig with a 4 gig to spend 6 to 8.

    Let me make this clear first.

    * In the next contained the words 'this portable' always refers to Hp Pavilion 15-n201ax *.
    Good then everything first I read somewhere that the maximum Ram of this laptop can be expanded up to 16 GB, but i came up with this link here-

    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/hardware-upgrades-replacements/I-would-like-to-upgrade-memory-of-my-lap...

    And then I came to know that it can only be upgraded to 12 GB page chapter 1 Description this Guide - #2

    http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c04438537.PDF

    First of all I would like to ask, is that,

    1. can I buy a RAM of any brand but the same 1600 mhz clock speed ofc IE?, then can I go to the GSkill 1600 Mhz DDR3 4 GB of ram?

    2. the size matter for respective locations? or I can install the 8 GB and 4 GB of ram in any other slots?

    So this was all about the RAM

    But I need to know if I can change the discrete GPU and the APU of this laptop

    3 and if yes - which are compatible mobile GPU that I can install by removing the previous one ie AMD 8600 M (for example graphics R9, R7 and R5 for laptop)

    4 and who are the compatible APU I can install by removing the APU previous IE AMD APU A10 - 4655 M (for example the AMD FX APU for laptops)

    5. If I can upgrade the GPU and APU both please tell makes compatibility issues? as only a specific GPU can work with a specific APU IE as in this laptop AMD APU A10 - 4655M + AMD 8600 M GPU.

    Please help me, please.

    Thanks in advance.

    We may need to refer to the owner's manual here:

    Your repair manuals

    Officially, it supports only 12 concerts. Your model has a single module of 8 GB if you have an open slot. Unofficially, users here can have reported that add another 8 GB for a total of 16 concerts will work fine. It's something you take the risk of making but it is not official.

    The part numbers for the appropriate memory are listed on page 42. You must DDR3L-1600 SO-DIMM.

    If you want to go formal, the 4 GB module is: 691740-001

    Is this on amazon.com:

    http://www.Amazon.com/HP-691740-001-1600MHz-PC3L-12800-memory/DP/B00CI08FX4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&QID=1437948185&SR=8-1&keywords=691740-001

    You just leave the concert 8 where it is and add the new memory into the open slot.

    On your laptop model, the GPU/APU is soldered to the motherboard. In order to make any upgrade, you will need to buy a new motherboard. You have an idea together wrong GPU/APU can be removed and replaced and this is incorrect. The term APU refers to a processor that has integrated video, so the whole issue on the compatibility between the GPU and APU just missing the mark. On some systems, the GPU/APU is socketed and can be replaced which is used to replace/upgrade the processor and the video function but as stated above, on your this involves pulling and replacing the entire motherboard.

    There is available a little better/graphics processor using AMD A10 - 5745M 8670 M (2.9 GHz/2.1 GHz, 2 GB L2, 1333 MHz DDR3L Quad 25W) for use with Standard Windows. The part of the motherboard is 734824-501

    Never heard of this seller and can not be a guarantor, but the price is very reasonable for this Council. I was expecting to be a little more makes me wonder about this seller a little. I would advise to keep what you have. He is very strong for AMD and the upgrade to the Commission on the A10-5745 will result in only a very small increase in performance to a very high cost in money and efforts.

    > I need someone to answer the question: can I ride this laptop an i5 or i7 without problem with compatibility with the motherboard?
    You should know that upgrades of processors are not supported by any laptop manufacturer. This means that no one can tell if a CPU would be fully compatible and cause no worries. These upgrades are own risk.

    You could read this statement from Toshiba about upgrades.
    [Is it possible to upgrade the CPU or GPU of a Toshiba laptop computer? | http://APS2.Toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm]

    The point is that even the chipset which is part of the motherboard would support the new processor, BIOS would not fully compatible and the combination of BIOS and the new processor may cause new troubles.

    The camera seems to supports the INTEL HM55 chipset and to my knowledge, the Toshiba Satellite C660/C665/Pro C660 series is based on a Dual Core/Quad Core Processor (* Intel Arrandale processors *)

    So if you want to find a compatible CPU, you should check the processors owned by the family of processors Intel Arrandale.

  • Z800 upgrade RAM & GPU - HP Performance Advisor WARNING

    Hello guys,.

    I would appreciate if you can help me with this.

    HP Performance advisor, gives me the following warning:

    'Memory '.

    Maximum memory performance is achieved with a balanced configuration memory evenly distributed throughout all channels of active memory. When there is more than one DIMM connector per channel, fill the inner layer closest to the CPU before adding memory to an outer layer.

    Technical mixed size DIMM - memory is optimized when all the DIMMS in a layer have the same size. »


    I have attached 2 photos.

    The first is the current state of the workstation with mixed sizes of RAM 1 GB & 2 GB modules.

    I don't want to throw my 2 GB modules. I want to just replace the modules of 1 GB a 4 GB modules,

    so the configuration will look like the 2nd picture, I joined.

    Is this feasible?

    A second thing is I want to upgrade my GPU.

    Currently a Nvidia Quadro 2000 is installed.

    I want to replace the GPU with a Nvidia GTX Titan.

    What should I take the exam prior to the GPU upgrade?

    Thanks in advance.

    The configuration of your memory project (second photo) is OK.  If I read correctly the image, you put 4 GB modules in the black connectors and the 2 GB modules in the white connectors.  This gives a configuration balanced, that is, each channel has the same 2 types of memory, so that you will not get the message memory unbalanced and could even get a performance more.

    Make sure that the memory of 2 GB and 4 GB is of the same type, correspondence ECC (or not), registered (or not), and if the chips of memory are x 4 or x 8.  Mixture of different types of memory will not work.

    HP does not officially support the nVidia GTX Titan, but it should work with the following precautions:

    -It will run at speeds PCIe Gen2, Gen3 not (but this should be fast enough).

    -From the picture I've seen of the Titan, he seems to have a 2 x 3 and a 2 x 4 power connector.  The Z800 has 2 power connectors for 2 x 3 for graphics.  A cable adapter to go from 2 x 3 to 2 x 4 is necessary to put the card.

  • iMac restarts after 5 minutes of the heavy load of CPU/GPU and noisy fan

    Hello

    My iMac (late 2012 if I remember) restarts when under heavy load for a while.

    I work a lot with Final Cut Pro X.

    Whenever I have add clips in an event, Final Cut allows you to copy and then transcode and analyze the clips, and this task's CPU/GPU intensive (Final Cut Pro X uses OpenCL, where CPU/GPU). After a few seconds, the iMac fan begins to be really strong and seems to reach its maximum speed.

    Then, after a few minutes of this heavy burden, the iMac simply restarts, and the fan slows down and stop. After the reboot, everything is back to normal, with the exception of the warning illustrated by Mac OS X, who said that the closure was not planned.

    I'm sure that this behavior is not normal. I don't see why a computer should reboot/crash when under heavy load.

    Note: you can also, to transcode some clips or movies I used the excellent software called Handbrake, using CPU only encoder ffmpeg, and I don't remember having accidents even if the CPU has been loaded and FAN running loud too. So maybe it has something to do with GPU?

    How can I understand what is happening?

    This Forum on NECK, we discussed several times the upgrade. For best performance, a lot of people want to upgrade CPU. Update CPU is not supported, and in particular cooling system, each laptop model is designed to work with certain hardware platform.

    In general the Qosmio laptops have the best material with excellent performance, so I put t know why you think the CPU upgrade. In my opinion, you should spend RAM and HARD drive. It is supported and can be done by the owner of the laptop without losing the warranty valid.

    Maximum RAM HDD Upgrade and upgrade with SSD and you will see the difference. You will be surprised with the speed of your laptop is.

    I ve do on my laptop. It works perfectly now. Think about all of this.

    Someone at - he do it before?

    Thanks for all the tips!

    Hello

    First of all, you will lose the warranty if you would disassemble the laptop!
    This should be clear to you.

    Then there is no guarantee that your laptop would go well and stable after this upgrade the CPU.
    I m thinking about issues of compatibility between the processor and BIOS since the BIOS was pretested with the other processors.

    However, I have read some threads here on the CPU upgrade and some users do that
    Seems that some laptops run without any big problems after upgrade CPU, but I think it's not consistent for all series
